Retry Logic

Effective retry mechanisms ensure your WUPEX API integration remains reliable, resilient, and robust in the face of transient errors. Use retries thoughtfully to enhance performance without causing cascading failures.

When to Retry

Only retry on transient errors that may resolve automatically:

Avoid retries on permanent failures such as HTTP 400, 401, 403, or 404: these errors must be corrected in your request before retrying

Exponential Backoff & Jitter

Use a capped exponential backoff strategy with randomized delay (jitter) to distribute retries and prevent “thundering herds.”

Strategy:

Sample Algorithm (pseudocode):

https
maxRetries = 5
delay = 500 ms
for attempt in 1..maxRetries:
  response = callAPI()
  if success: return
  if status ∈ [429, 5xx]:
     wait(delay + rand(0, delay))
     delay = min(delay × 2, 10_000)
  else: break
error: request failed
  

Limits & Best Practices

Sample Retry Logic (JavaScript)

https
async function wupexRequest(fn) {
  let retries = 0, delay = 500;
  while (retries < 5) {
    try {
      return await fn();
    } catch (err) {
      const code = err.status;
      if (![429].includes(code) && !(code >= 500 && code < 600)) throw err;

      retries++;
      const jitter = Math.random() * delay;
      await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, delay + jitter));
      delay = Math.min(delay * 2, 10000);
    }
  }
  throw new Error("Max retries reached");
}
